My Mind Ain’t My Master
Slow, Rough Acoustic - Let The Words Breathe.
Verse 1
It’s Three In The Morning And I’m Wide Awake
Running Every Mistake I’ve Ever Made
Wondering If I Said Too Much
Wondering If I Didn’t Say Enough
I Make A Mountain Out Of Every Little Thing
Put Tomorrow’s Trouble On Today’s Shoulders
And I Swear I Know Better
But I Still Let This Mind Run Me Over
Chorus
So I Get Down On My Knees
When I Can’t Shut My Head Up
Say, “Lord, I’m Tired Of Fighting
Something I Can’t Fix Up”
I’ve Spent My Whole Life Trying
To Hold The World In My Hands
But Every Time I Let You Lead Me
I Finally Understand
My Mind Ain’t My Master
And Fear Ain’t Who I Am
Jesus, You’re The Only Way
I’m Gonna Make It Through This Mess
Verse 2
I’ve Questioned Every Blessing You Ever Gave
Thought Every Closed Door Meant You Walked Away
I’ve Called Silence Abandonment
When You Were Probably Telling Me, “Just Wait.”
I Tried Fixing People I Couldn’t Save
Tried Holding Marriages Together With My Hands
Tried Being Strong When I Was Breaking
Now I’m Finally Learning Who I Am
Chorus
I’m The Man Who Gets Down On His Knees
When He Can’t Shut His Head Up
Says, “Lord, I’m Tired Of Fighting
Something I Can’t Fix Up”
I’ve Spent My Whole Life Trying
To Hold The World In My Hands
But Every Time I Let You Lead Me
I Finally Understand
My Mind Ain’t My Master
And Fear Ain’t Who I Am
Jesus, You’re The Only Way
I’m Gonna Make It Through This Mess
Bridge
Maybe Faith Ain’t Knowing
How The Story’s Gonna End
Maybe Faith Is Walking
When You Can’t See Around The Bend
And If I Lose My Footing
I’ll Remember What You Said
You Don’t Need Me To Be Fearless
You Just Asked Me To Trust Instead
Final Chorus
So I’ll Get Down On My Knees
When I Can’t Shut My Head Up
Say, “Lord, I’m Giving You
Every Piece That’s Got Me Messed Up”
I Don’t Need Tomorrow’s Answers
I Don’t Need To Understand
I Just Need To Know You’re With Me
And Keep Reaching For Your Hand
‘Cause My Mind Ain’t My Master
And Fear Ain’t Who I Am
I’ve Tried Everything Without You
Now I Know Where I Stand
Outro
If My Mind Starts Running...
I’ll Run To You Instead.
If Fear Starts Talking...
I’ll Remember What You Said.
I Ain’t Got It Figured Out...
But I Don’t Have To, Anyway.
I Spent Too Long Looking For Another Road...
Jesus, You’re The Only Way.
